Have you ever tried gourmet
marshmallows?

If you have, then you should know that
they are the best dessert one could ever have! I had my first gourmet
marshmallows when I was on an overseas vacation. I can still remember
the taste of Japanese matcha-flavoured marshmallows. Heavenly!

Who would expect that you can actually
find the marshmallows here in Malaysia?! Thank you Carmen Cheong, for
doing what you do! I can have those delicious gourmet marshmallows
whenever I want to hahaha

Carmen calls this the “marshie
culture” where virtually anything can be eaten with marshmallows,
so true lollll. What I love most about these marshmallows is that
they’re homemade and each marshmallow could be custom made! Doesn’t
just looking at these bite-sized desserts makes you all warm and
happy inside?

And you know what else makes me happy?

ICE-CREAM!!!

Omg look at those hipster looking
packaging for Potong ice-cream! I need to get this for memories sake
hahaha remember those times when the Potong ice-cream was a childhood
snack? My mom used to buy us those cheap potong ice-cream and keep it
at home so we can have it for dessert. But my sister and I would
sneak one or two pieces from fridge because we couldn’t wait until
after dinner lollll. Sharing this same ‘food passion’ with me is
none other than Potong Artisan Pops pioneer,Tee
Reei who started the idea to save the
art of handmade ice-cream.

Shine On is a collaboration between
Libresse and featured female entrepreneurs. It is an initiative to
help female entrepreneurs like Carmen and Tee Reei gain exposure on
these businesses. If you would like to know more, you can also read
about other amazing female entrepreneurs at the Street
Savvy section. Keen to find out more on
the unique products?? Then head over to Gosh!
That’s Great! Gallery! to view the
products and information on the awesome person behind the product
idea.

I personally think that women should
not let our gender be an excuse to be weak. We as women are
definitely capable in many things including in terms of starting our
own business. Women who single-handedly open up a business are
admirable on so many levels because they’re proof that we can be
just as successful as men.

Women who think like a man are very
inspiring. Which is why, never let words bring you down woman! You
are strong, capable, and just as smart as men. All you have to do is
believe in yourself and take the plunge. It’s cool that there’s a
campaign that’s all out to support women. This is what the Libresse
Shine On campaign is all about.

Some sections on the Shine-On website
that you may find interesting:

Let’s Talk Shop where one can
interact with the women in business to learn how they started their
business and enquire about the products that offered by them

Let’s Get Down To Business is
where you can find useful tools & links to start up your own
business!

For example, if you need
tips on how to start up your own online-store, you can find it under
this segment! 

Also, if you have your own business and
unique story to share, you can be featured here too, at the Be
Featured segment!

So interesting and useful for potential
female entrepreneurs!!
